Christina

 Mike's little sister Christina and her friend Laura stayed with us this weekend! They flew in from Chicago on Friday and we dropped them off at EFY on Monday. In the meantime we had a lot of fun! On Saturday we woke up and took them to Beyond Glaze of course, it's our Saturday tradition. Then we got ready and headed to Park City. While we were there we ate on Main Street, walked and shopped up and down Main Street, took them to get Feather Extensions, Rode the Alpine Coaster, and we drove around and looked at all of the cool houses. Later we ate dinner at Cafe Rio, hit up Sweet Tooth Fairy, and went to see the movie 12 Miracles at Thanksgiving Point. On Sunday we made breakfast, went to our ward, took them to BYU so they could check out the campus (they both want to go there), and then ate dinner and played games at my moms. It was a busy but, really FUN weekend. Christina, is so fun and so sweet! I just love her... she is so mature for her age and it is really impressive to me. I loved having girl time and playing with a sister (in-law), which is something that is new to me! :) We loved having them here!

is So MUCH Fun! Go, if you haven't already...

Also, I had a lot of fun cooking and preparing our house for guests...

They are our first guests in our new place...

 Here are few recipes that we tried out!

I have been wanting to try Rainbow Jello for awhile, it's just so cute (So, I made my own girly version. Pink, Red, Purple, and Blue-we later added whipped cream and it was good). I looked at a lot of recipes and this one looked like it set up the quickest so I tried it out.

We also made these yummy breakfast biscuits!

Oh and these (Raspberries with Chocolate Chips inside of them) are a new FAVORITE of mine!

If you know me, you know that I have a hard time with Fruits and Veggies

 but, adding Chocolate Chips made them SO GOOD!

Try it! :)

We were going to make the Lemonade Cake again but, after all the Beyond Glaze and Sweet Tooth Fairy Leftovers we were GOOD!

I really hope they are having FUN at EFY right now and I can't wait to hear about it when we pick them up on Saturday!

Happy

I am feeling very happy and grateful for the life that I have today! I am very lucky person! I love all the wonderful people in my life, and I appreciate all they do everyday! THANK YOU!

So, we had a fun weekend...

For me, It started with a girls dinner in PC with Mara and Lindsay. Lindsay is leaving us for a bit so, we wanted to get together before she left! We had appetizers and drinks at a cute restaurant at the bottom of main street, walked up main street shopping along the way, had dinner at a yummy Italian place at the top of main street, and then went for ice cream of course! It was a fun night, Linds was hilarious, we laughed a lot and I know me and Mara will miss her while she is gone.

Bloopers... I wasn't supposed to post these...So, hopefully they don't see this but, I think they are funny! :)

Then Friday night we went to the Blaze game and our CUTE friend Kristen got engaged! We couldn't be happier for her, Aaron is great! We love when our fun single friends become fun married friends! :)

She said Yes!

The group... (well, some of them. Mike is taking the pic)

and then Saturday we did our favorite hike! It was SO nice to get outside and be together!

and now we have a FUN week planned too...

lots of dinners with Friends and fun stuff planned!

Yay, Life is great!

Here is the Recipe...

PS- I LOVE my dad, he is GREAT dad..I hope he enjoyed his cake and Father's Day!

We missed our other dad in Chicago but, we sent him a card and wished him a Happy Father's Day on the phone.

I can't wait until my husband becomes a Dad, I know he will be the best dad ever! If you take into account how much he loves and takes care of me and Mr. B already I can't even imagine him with a little one.

 I am looking forward to that for sure!

Weekend Getaway

We had such a wonderful weekend in Park City last weekend...

I  had SO much fun with my handsome husband!

We...hot tubed morning and night (our hotel had a hot tub on the balcony), ATE a lot (mostly pizza and pastries), shopped, explored PC, and went to the Park Silly Market on Main Street.

I couldn't of asked for a better weekend Getaway!

Thanks, Lovie!

NOT my favorite picture, it was early (hence the NO makeup and the fact that my eyes are barely open, I was sleepy still)... But, it was nice to roll out of bed and jump in a hot tub! :) Plus, this is the only pic we got of our hot tubing adventures. It's kinda dangerous to take an iphone pic of the both of us in the hot tub...

Cafe on Main Street- I love eating on patios!

I LOVE him... he is my favorite forever!



Oops, I did it again...

Yep, I cooked again! and it was GOOD (and super easy and fast)...

I love that me cooking is the most exciting thing I have to blog about...no really, I love it!

I love being married and I love that I actually want to cook!

It's weird, and fun!

I made Coconut Chicken, It was really yummy (I LOVE Coconut)! 

You should try it too!
